Stampin’ Up! Snowbody Better CAS

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week already and on the downhill to the weekend. WOW!! October is just flying by.

Today I have a clean and simple card for you which I actually had fun making. Today’s card can be used as a friendship card, birthday card, holiday card or anything else you can think of. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Snowbody Better Cling Stamp Set along with the Tidings of Christmas 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My design is from CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge #441.

My colors are from Global Design Project Challenge #313.

I started by adhering a Tiding of Christmas DSP card front to a Sahara Sand card base.

I cut a panel of Real Red cardstock using the Basic Borders Dies. I embossed the panel using the Wintry 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to the top of the card front.

On a strip of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Snowbody Better stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Stitched Rectangle Dies and adhered it to the card front. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Snowbody Better stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the snowflake image from the Snowbody Better stamp set in Sahara Sand Ink, stamping off once, on either side of the sentiment. I adhered a strip of the Tidings of Christmas DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Real Red mat and then to the inside of the Sahara Sand card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Tidings of Christmas DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Sparkle of The Season for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop

Good Tuesday morning my fellow stampers. Welcome to Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop. It’s the 2nd Tuesday of the month so that means Blog Hop Day!! If you are starting with me, be sure to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. If you’ve hopped over from Shirley Gentry’s blog, welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by. The theme this month is “Giving Thanks”.  We can interpret this however we want.  Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sparkle of The Season Bundle along with the Bloom Where You’re Planted Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of Bloom Where You’re Planted DSP to a Cinnamon Cider mat.

From a panel of Cinnamon Cider cardstock, I cut the leafy wreath using my Seasonal Swirls Dies. I adhered the wreath to the card front. I stamped the trio leaf image from the Stampin’ Up! Sparkle of The Season Photopolymer Stamp Set in Bumblebee and Real Red Inks inside the wreath on the DSP. On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the leaf image from the Sparkle of The Season stamp set 2 times in Bumblebee Ink and 2 times in Real Red Ink. I stamped the other leafy image from the Sparkle of The Season stamp set in Just Jade Ink twice. I cut all the images out, along with the small floral die from a panel of Vellum Paper, using my Seasonal Swirls Dies.

I tied a bow using the Just Jade 3/8″ Gingham Ribbon from Flowers For Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack and adhered it to the bottom of the wreath. I adhered the die cut leaf images under the bow. On the Basic White panel I stamped the sentiment from the Sparkle of The Season stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink and cut it out using my Hippo & Friends Dies and adhered it to the bottom of the card front. I adhered the card front to a Cinnamon Cider card base. I added a few Bumblebee 2020-2022 In-Color Square Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Sparkle of The Season stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink. I stamped the trio leaf image on either side of the sentiment in Bumblebee and Real Red Inks. I stamped the leaf images from the Sparkle of the Season stamp set in Bumblebee, Just Jade and Real Red Inks on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Cinnamon Cider mat and then to the inside of the Cinnamon Cider card base.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaf images from the Sparkle of The Season stamp set in Bumblebee, Just Jade and Real Red Inks on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Bloom Where You’re Planted DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Sending Hugs

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? Hope it was a good one for you.

I played with a bundle from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog for today’s card. I’ve had this set, but just finally put some ink on it. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sending Hugs Bundle along with the Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My colors are from the Just Add Ink Colour Challenge #575.

I started by adhering a panel of Pansy Petals DSP to a Soft Succulent mat off centering it. I adhered the layered panel to a Basic White Thick card base.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the large image from the Stampin’ Up! Sending Hugs Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Polished Pink and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. From a panel of Gold Foil Paper, I adhered a piece of the Foam Adhesive Sheet to the back and cut the ‘HUGS’ sentiment using my Layering Hugs Dies. I also cut from the Gold Foil Paper 3 of the flowers and 3 of the leaves using the Layering Hugs Dies. I adhered the ‘HUGS’ to the card front over the stamped image. I adhered the flowers and leaves to the artwork. I adhered the Basic White panel to the card front.

On a scrap of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Sending Hugs stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and cut it out using my Layering Hugs Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Create With Friends Photopolymer Stamp Set in Polished Pink and Soft Succulent Inks. I stamped the flower image from the Sending Hugs stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink next to the sentiment and colored it in using my Polished Pink and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Soft Succulent mat and then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flower image from the Sending Hugs stamp set twice on the envelope front and colored it in using my Polished Pink and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Pansy Petals DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Joyful Life CAS

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is your weekend going? Is anyone doing anything adventurous and fun?

I used another one of my favorite sets today for a CAS card. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Joyful Life Cling Stamp Set along with the Brights 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper and the Regals 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My colors are from CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge #440.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #506.

I started by embossing a Basic White card front using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered 2 strips of the Brights DSP in Poppy Parade and Pacific Point and 1 strip of the Garden Green Regals DSP to the card front on an angle. I adhered the card front to a Thick Basic White card base.

Using my Layering Circle Dies I cut the 3rd largest circle and the coordinating scallop circle from a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the image from the Joyful Life stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the circle. I colored the image in using my Crumb Cake, Ivory, Poppy Parade and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers and my Garden Green Stampin’ Write Marker. On a scrap of the Pacific Point Brights DSP I stamped the same image from the Joyful Life stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and fussy cut the apron out using my Paper Snips and adhered it to the stamped image. I adhered the circle to the scalloped circle and then to the card front.

On a scrap of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Joyful Life stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and fussy cut it using my Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment to the top of the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin Up! Sunny Sentiments Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered 2 strips of the Garden Green Regals DSP to the corners of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Garden Green mat and then to the inside of the Thick Basic White card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Brights DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Harvest CAS

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? It was a gorgeous fall weekend here, unfortunately I spent most of it inside working.

I used another one of my favorite sets from the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog for my card today. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Harvest Bundle along with the Blackberry Beauty Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My colors are from TGIF Challenge #336.

My design today is from Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #505.

I started by adhering a panel of Blackberry Beauty DSP to a Thick Very Vanilla card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Using my Layering Circles Dies, I cut 2 circles the same size, 1 in Basic Black cardstock and 1 in Blackberry Bliss cardstock. I embossed the Basic Black circle using my Stitched Greenery Die and I embossed the Blackberry Bliss circle using my Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered them to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the small floral image from the Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Harvest Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink and cut the image out using my Harvest Dies. I adhered the floral image to the Blackberry Bliss circle using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a strip of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Nature’s Harvest stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and cut it out using my Harvest Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front over the circles using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Elegant Faceted Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Through It Together Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Very Vanilla panel. I stamped the small floral image from the Nature’s Harvest stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel twice. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Blackberry Bliss mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Thick Very Vanilla card base using Stampin’ Seal.

To finish my card I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the small floral image from the Nature’s Harvest stamp set on the envelope front twice in Tuxedo Black Ink. I adhered a panel of Blackberry Beauty DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Celebrate With Friends Gorgeous Leaves

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to the weekend. Happy World Card Making Day. Today’s the perfect day to make some cards and MAIL the cards. We don’t hoard cards, we mail them!!! I hope you can join our Facebook event today. There will be live videos starting at 9am until 5pm along with some giveaways. I’ll be going live at 4pm.

Here is the link to join our World Card Making Day Event. I hope you will join us.

This is the schedule of the Facebook Live Videos for our World Card Making Day Event.

I have a Clean and Simple card for you today. My upline Jaimie sent me a similar one last week and I just loved it so much I had to make it. I’m also using this design for my in person class this coming Tuesday. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Leaves Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Create With Friends Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today. I just love Cherry Cobbler and Crumb Cake together, they give me such a warm feeling for the fall.

I started by stamping the woodgrain image from the Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Leaves Cling Stamp Set in Crumb Cake Ink on a Crumb Cake card front.

I stamped the sentiment from the Create With Friends stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink below the woodgrain image. I adhered the card front to a Cherry Cobbler mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to a Crumb Cake card base using Stampin Dimensionals.

Using my Intricate Leaves Dies, I cut the maple leaf die from a panel of Cherry Cobbler cardstock and the branch die from a panel of Early Espresso cardstock. I adhered the branch to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I tied a piece of the Early Espresso 1/4′ Faux Suede Trim around the leaf die and adhered it to the card front using Glue Dots. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Create With Friends stamp set in Cherry Cobbler and Crumb Cake Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock. I stamped the maple leaf image from the Gorgeous Leaves stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink on either side of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Cherry Cobbler mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Crumb Cake card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the maple leaf image from the Gorgeous Leaves stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the woodgrain image from the Gorgeous Leaves stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink across the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my CAS card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends! Welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. I hope everyone is doing well today. We have a new hopper with us starting this week, Tara Carpenter has joined us, YAY!! If you are hopping over from Akiko Sudano’s blog, thank you for stopping by my blog. This week we have a Sketch Challenge. I can’t wait to see what everyone has created this week. Be sure to take a moment to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. Here is my card using this weeks Sketch.

I used my favorite set for today’s blog hop, the Stampin’ Up! Delivering Cheer Photopolymer Set along with the Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper.

Here is our sketch for this week.

I started by adhering a panel of Whimsy & Wonder DSP to a Polished Pink mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to a Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the top and bottom images from the Delivering Cheer stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the legwarmer image in Polished Pink Ink. I colored the image in using my Crumb Cake, Mint Macaron, Mossy Meadow & Polished Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the 3rd largest Stitched Rectangle Dies. I adhered the artwork to a Polished Pink mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Delivering Cheer stamp set in Polished Pink Ink. I cut the strip into a banner using my Banners Pick A Punch. I cut a strip of Polished Pink cardstock using the Banners Pick A Punch and adhered the sentiment to the mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and Glue Dots. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Delivering Cheer stamp set in Polished Pink Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered 2 strips of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to either side of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Polished Pink mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Pretty Golden Pumpkins

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and on the downhill to the weekend. My team is planning on having an all day event on Facebook for World Card Making Day on Saturday October 2nd. I’ll be posting the link by the end of the week. There will be live videos every hour on the hour along with posts all day and Prize Patrol. Come join in the fun!!!

Today’s card is a CASE’d card from one of my team members Terry Lynn. She made this gorgeous card and I asked her if I could use it for my class next Tuesday. You can see Terry Lynn’s card Here. I added my own little touches, but the basic design is all hers.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Pretty Pumpkins Bundle along with the Macramé 3D Embossing Folder for my card today.

I started by embossing a Very Vanilla card front using the Macramé 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to a Very Vanilla Thick card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I cut the detailed pumpkin image using the Detailed Pumpkins Dies from a panel of Gold Foil Paper. I cut a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock using the 4th largest Stitched Rectangle Dies and adhered it to a Gold Foil Mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the detailed Gold Foil pumpkin to the layered panel using a tiny amount of Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I adhered a small piece of Gold 3/8″ Shimmer Ribbon to the card front using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Pretty Pumpkins Cling Stamp Set in Versamark Ink on a Very Vanilla panel. I immediately sprinkled it with my Gold Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I stamped the leaf pumpkin image from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Soft Suede Ink, stamping off once, to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Very Vanilla mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Very Vanilla Thick card base using Stampin’ Seal.

To finish my card I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaf pumpkin image from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Soft Suede Ink, stamping off once, on the envelope front. I embossed a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock using the Macramé 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Pretty Pumpkin Picture This

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? It was a gorgeous fall weekend here, blue skies and in the 70’s.

Today’s card is all about Fall!! It’s that time of year where the pumpkins are ready to be picked and the leaves are changing. I used one of my favorite fall sets from the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog. Here’s my card for today.


I used the Stampin’ Up! Pretty Pumpkin Cling Stamp Set along with the Harvest Meadow and Beauty of The Earth Designer Series Papers for my card today.

I joined in with the TGIF Challenge #335 this week with their inspiration photo.

I started by adhering a panel of Harvest Meadow DSP to a Bumblebee card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut a panel of Beauty of The Earth DSP using the Picture This Dies. I place a panel of Very Vanilla card stock under the die and lightly traced the rectangles so I knew where I could stamp.

Using my Pretty Pumpkins stamp set, I stamped the 2 pumpkin vine images on the top of the panel, the sentiment in the center and the pumpkin trio on the bottom in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images in using my Cajun Craze, Calypso Coral, Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers. Once I colored all the images in I erased the pencil drawn lines.

I adhered the die cut panel to the Very Vanilla panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Pumpkin Pie Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock. I stamped the pumpkin trio image from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel and colored it the same as I did for the card front. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Very Vanilla mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Bumblebee card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the pumpkin and vine images from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set on the envelope front and colored them in the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Harvest Meadow DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
